Every startup begins with a dream. A founder sees a problem, imagines a better way to solve it, and starts building. In EdTech, that dream often sounds especially meaningful: better tools for teachers, more engaging learning for students, smarter use of technology in schools, or wider access to quality education. But as Maciej Mazurkiewicz points out in our EdTech Dots conversation, a dream is not enough. Maciej has almost 20 years of experience working with startups, much of

Artificial intelligence has already entered the classroom. Students use it to write essays, solve problems and prepare presentations. Teachers use it to create lesson plans, generate exercises and reduce administrative work. Parents are trying to understand whether AI is a useful learning tool or simply another shortcut. But the most important question is not whether someone used AI. The real question is: what happened to their thinking in the process? This was the central th

AI is transforming education at a time when systems are already stretched thin. We face teacher shortages, student disengagement, rising dropout rates, and an impending wave of job disruption. In his conversation on the EdTech Dots Podcast, Greg Margas articulated a tension that many builders experience. We are overwhelmed by ideas and hype, yet we often lack focus on the few things that will truly matter in the next decade. This article extracts several key themes from Greg’

What if the biggest problem in education isn’t technology, funding, or curriculum — but the fact that schools still operate on an industrial blueprint designed over a century ago? That’s where my conversation with Carl Morris and Saif Sarwar begins. Both have lived across three worlds: • inside classrooms as teachers, • inside companies as edtech operators, • and inside entire systems across the UK, the Middle East, and Europe . Together, they brought one message: Education

What does it take to grow an education product from a small startup into the largest EdTech app in the world with over 350 million users...

In today's fast-evolving academic landscape, technology plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of universities and colleges. Innovative educational software platforms are transforming how institutions manage operations, engage students, and deliver quality education.

Every few weeks, another bold new EdTech platform makes headlines. Platforms promise artificial intelligence tutors, immersive video lessons, and “effortless” multi-device access.

Each year, education conferences unveil the latest jaw-dropping gadget: a voice-powered AI tutor, virtual reality classroom, or slick app that “disrupts” learning.
